The process of synthesis of ATP in the mitochondria is also known as ____


acetyl-CoA NADH carbon dioxide NADP+ NADPH fatty acids
oxidative phosphorylation glucose oxygen NAD+ pyruvate ADP
water ATP photophosphorylation reductive phosphorylation
The process of synthesis of ATP in the mitochondria is also known as ________________________________________________. Mitochondria import ________________________ and _________________________, which are used as sources of energy for subsequent reactions. __________________________ acts as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial electron-transport chain. __________________________ produced in the citric acid cycle donates electrons to the electron-transport chain. A molecule of __________________________ is fed into the citric acid cycle and is converted into __________________________, which is released as a waste product.

An experiment is done to measure electron transport and ATP synthesis in isolated mitochondria. Sketch a plot of the hypothetical experimental results if you measure both O2 consumption and ATP synthesis ( Left Y-axis for O2 consumption; Right Y-axis for ATP production, overlay both on the same plot. You may use different color or simply indicate the curves) versus time (X-axis). Start the experiment (t = 0) with succinate, ADP, and Pi in the mix and successively add DNP at...
